I’ll definitely ask for your guidance when you master it. Besides, it’s my patrol time now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai waved her hand, \"Alright then, you go patrol, I’ll keep practicing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard wasn’t reassured, \"It’s eleven thirty. If you, boss, don’t go to sleep, I’ll tell Doctor Ji that you’re not taking care of your health.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How annoying, who is your boss after all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai was really afraid that Ji Li would actually come find her. This person had a terrifying influence, especially when she had done something wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she hurt herself and still pushes her body, he might risk breach of contract and take back the laboratory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her two \"lifelines\" in Ji Li’s hands, Su Xiaocai had no choice but to obediently put away the whip and return to the bedroom in the lab to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wiped her body with a damp handkerchief, lifted the medical bandage, and replaced it with a clean one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The external wound was gone, but it wasn’t visible inside. She needed topical medication to accelerate bone healing and an internal nutritional pin to speed it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the nutritional pin was fully absorbed, the bone was expected to heal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the following week, Su Xiaocai took more than an hour each night to practice her whip skills cautiously without touching the wound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it rained with thunderstorms every day for a week, adding a bit of coolness to the stuffy weather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the training didn’t yield much success, her recovery sped up, which was good news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another check-up at the school clinic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Li said her recovery was beast-like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re the beast, you’re a turtle.\" This time, to thank Ji Li, Su Xiaocai actually gifted turtles, two mini turtles, no larger than a palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These turtles have a very unique feature. They’re lazy, yet resilient in life, able to burrow in dry sand for over a month without eating or drinking if without food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, mini turtles have specific living conditions, needing a large enough tank half filled with dry sand and half with water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So you bought turtles for a few hundred dollars, but I need to buy a tank for thousands? Doesn’t include delivery?\" Ji Li pointed at the motionless turtles on the desk, amused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’ll arrive this afternoon, cash on delivery.\" Su Xiaocai whistled, looking skyward at a forty-five degree angle, \"How could I not handle it, I’m not that kind of person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look into my eyes when you say that, Ji Li thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had he not spoken up, Su Xiaocai truly wouldn’t handle it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted turtle art, not real turtles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking into the beady eyes of the two turtles, Ji Li felt woeful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Li pinched her slightly chubby cheeks, playfully scolding, \"You’ve got nerve, gifting me these turtles. You take responsibility for turtle food too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then give me the turtles, and I’ll return them.\" Su Xiaocai, her cheeks pinched, could only mumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t even think about it. I heard you’ve been misbehaving every night, playing with a whip for fun...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who told you that?\" Traitor, all traitors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never mind who.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai’s cheeks turned red from the pinching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, her communicator rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Li let go of her, first placing the turtles in a big beaker, where they lay still at the edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huahua jumped onto the table, reaching out a paw to catch them, but Ji Li held the cat’s paw, \"You’re getting more and more like your owner, curious about everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to touch the turtles, Huahua turned to push his ceramic cup, tilting its head as if to say, \"I’m going to push this, what will you do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you keep your Huahua in check?\" Ji Li retrieved the cup, placing it on the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fat cat hugged its paws, pretending to scratch him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai gave Huahua a pat on the head, \"I have something to do, please take care of Huahua for me, I’ll be back later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Li: \"Can I hit it? It’s getting so naughty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took out two pieces of dried meat, stuffing them into his hand, \"Would you really? Please look after Huahua, something important has come up, I can’t take it with me now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The principal summoned her specifically to his office, saying people from the military and the competition committee were looking for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s it about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know, the principal didn’t say.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be careful, contact me if anything happens.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm, Brother Ji, you’re the most reliable, I’ll definitely seek your help if needed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Li: \"Let’s avoid that, okay? Can’t handle it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai clicked her tongue, then took a car to the principal’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knocked and entered, finding ten people inside the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Haoming was curled up at the end of the sofa, the weakest presence, looking a bit pitiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five others were in military uniforms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another three were in suits, presumably committee members, appearing young, unlike the old folks from last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, Su Xiaocai only recognized Admiral Bai’s secretary. So she could only smile and nod at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai walked over to Yu Haoming and sat down, as there wasn’t enough space on the sofa, she took a stool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She asked Yu Haoming, \"What’s going on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know, Kaye informed me that the military wanted to see me, then sent me to the school here.\" Due to the rushed call, he hadn’t groomed, only changed clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hair was messy, like it was swept by a typhoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The principal introduced Su Xiaocai and Yu Haoming to the guests, \"They are all organizers of the Ten-Star Competition. They want Extraordinary Island to provide venues for the first and second events.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What? Yu Haoming was puzzled, what venue from Extraordinary Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The company had made a bit of money but hadn’t bought any land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you talking about virtual venues?\" Su Xiaocai added, \"You want to use Extraordinary Island’s game mechanics to create the competition grounds?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, we previously considered having more students participate. But many games developed by companies didn’t meet our expectations, so the plan was shelved.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They pushed some paper materials of the competition plan in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The simulated competition was divided into two parts, \"a platform competition simulating various scenarios and a team competition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai flipped through the platform competition documents, \"This platform competition, other companies can do it too, why entrust it to us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A committee representative smiled, \"The Extraordinary Island plan is the closest to realistic operations. Later, there’s a competition requiring students to compete in reality, so the earlier matches must align student capabilities with reality.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The committee representative even praised, \"We compared over ten thousand games, and only the Extraordinary Island game made the cut.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They spoke so flatteringly, someone unaware might really believe their words were true, thinking her company was the sole choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai wasn’t interested in such fluff, \"So, how much time are you planning to give us for this project, and how will the payment be calculated?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ten-Star Competition is an official project and definitely requires bidding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bidding requirements and necessary qualifications also needed clarity here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want to develop a competition venue only to be sidelined midway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing her product was better, yet being overtaken by some knockoff, she would be livid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can offer fifty million as payment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai thought she misheard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The committee repeated the fifty million figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiaocai chuckled, \"Fifty million is too little for even scripting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem.\" The principal interjected, \"Listen to their ideas first, don’t be quick to conclude.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The committee wasn’t embarrassed; the decision wasn’t theirs. They were just messengers fulfilling a need.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The competition model proposed by the military left the committee with no choice but to proceed and present a strategy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And given the military’s preference for this game company, their hands were tied, left to sell the grand prospects.\u003C\u002Fp>",1416,"2026-06-03T10:45:19.403Z",1,"novelbin.me","44e1b401eb73edb30e61f20b6ced1c5cc50065f56e07d29ed8cc50ee5a5aebc3","interstellar-number-one-farmer-i-only-want-to-fa-chapter-357","interstellar-number-one-farmer-i-only-want-to-fa-chapter-355",593,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finterstellar-number-one-farmer-i-only-want-to-fa-cover.jpg"]
